Is the Yaskawa CIMR-VC4A0004BAA discontinued?

The CIMR-VC4A0004BAA has been cancelled (since March 2024, last-time-buy February 2024): no longer sold as a current product, though spares may remain available for a period.

What Cancellation means for you

You can no longer order it as a normal product, and nothing new should be designed around it. If machines depend on it, you want spare stock you can rely on and a migration plan. Both start with knowing how many you run and whether each has a backup.

How ECS defines Cancellation · all four lifecycle stages

Before replacing a variable speed drive

Matching the motor power and supply voltage is only the start with a drive replacement. We would capture the full parameter set, motor nameplate data, acceleration and deceleration behaviour, control terminals, braking arrangement and any network communications.

Even a manufacturer-recommended successor can use different parameter numbering or I/O behaviour. A verified parameter backup taken while the drive is healthy is normally far easier to work from than reconstructing the machine setup after a failure.

Common questions about the CIMR-VC4A0004BAA

Is the Yaskawa CIMR-VC4A0004BAA discontinued?

The CIMR-VC4A0004BAA has been cancelled (since March 2024, last-time-buy February 2024): no longer sold as a current product, though spares may remain available for a period.

Can I still buy a CIMR-VC4A0004BAA?

Not as a normal new product. Remaining distributor stock or designated spares may still be available. Buy any you need now.

How do I back up a CIMR-VC4A0004BAA?

It is programmed with DriveWizard Industrial. The exact software version and cable depend on the unit's firmware. ECS records both for every unit it captures, alongside a verified backup.

With a backup, a failed unit is hours. Without one, it is days.

A Capture audit finds every CIMR-VC4A0004BAA on your site, takes a backup of each one it can reach, and records the software version and cable needed to restore it. When a discontinued unit fails and a replacement turns up, the program is ready to load.

  • Every device located, photographed and lifecycle-checked
  • Backups taken on the day, with software version and cable recorded
  • Findings report, plus a populated Command Centre
  • No production downtime
